AM2520SYCK03

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The AM2520SYCK03 is a single-color surface-mount LED emitting super bright yellow light. It utilizes DH InGaAlP on a GaAs substrate with a water clear dome lens. The component measures 4.50 mm by 2.00 mm with a height of 0.50 mm, though total height is listed as 2.8 mm in some specifications. Key electrical parameters include a peak wavelength of 590 nm, a nominal luminous intensity of 250 mcd (or 2.2 cd), and a maximum forward current of 30 mA. It operates within a temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Super bright yellow emission using DH InGaAlP technology
• Low power consumption suitable for indicator applications
• Water clear dome lens for optimized light transmission

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Backlighting for electronic devices
• Status indicators on control panels
• General purpose visual signaling

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific binning grade for luminous intensity and wavelength upon ordering, as variations exist between datasheet versions. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times directly with Kingbright or authorized distributors. Ensure soldering profiles match the thermal characteristics of the SMT-2 package to prevent damage during assembly.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a compact 2520 footprint with high visibility yellow output. Consider the 20-degree viewing angle and water clear lens for directional indication needs. Compare against similar models like AM2520SYCK09 if higher intensity is required, ensuring voltage and current ratings align with the target circuit design.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to the Kingbright 2520 series of surface-mount LEDs, designed for space-constrained electronics. The series offers various colors and lens types, providing flexibility for different visual signaling requirements while maintaining a standardized low-profile package dimension.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

AM2520SYCK09 is a documented alternative offering higher luminous intensity. KM2520SYCK03 is an alias for the same component family. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal performance before substituting.
